Austria strengthens its laws

Doping

Austrian sport wants to strengthen its legislative arsenal to fight against doping. According to the Minister of Sports, Gerald Klug, the country will very soon adopt a law which will make any form of collaboration with a coach or official who has been involved in a doping case in the past illegal for an athlete. A law which falls directly into the framework of WADA's new global anti-doping code, which is supposed to come into force in 2015.
